# SG Hair Ltd: Agent-Direct Score D (43.5%) Site: https://www.sghair.uk/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/sghair.uk Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) SG Hair Ltd is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by SG Hair Ltd's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Vagaro. ## Direct links - Book directly: https://www.vagaro.com/sghair1 (through vagaro acting for the business) - Phone: +441216475000 - Address: 297A Walsall Rd, B42 1TY, Birmingham ## Nearby, also direct Places near SG Hair Ltd that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Siddi Henna Art (610 m): https://directindex.org/r/siddi-henna.co.uk - Greenleaf Treatments (980 m): https://directindex.org/r/greenleaftreatments.com - SK Aesthetics Clinic and Training Academy (1.1 km): https://directindex.org/r/sk-aesthetics.co.uk - Amici Hair (1.2 km): https://directindex.org/r/ahair.co.uk ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # SG Hair Ltd > local business in 297A Walsall Rd, B42 1TY, Birmingham, Birmingham hairdressers and beauty salons.
